Tic Tac Toe Game

Submitted by sharon on Fri, 2013-05-24 16:27

Who doesn't love Tic Tac Toe? It's a real tradition for any kid growing up and a fun game that can be played between children and parents. And, it's a game kids can actually win and feel good about their success.

We made ours using two Dollar store pool noodles. The playing mat is made from a piece of craft foam. Make it a take-along game by purchasing, or making, a little mesh drawstring bag to hold the parts. Ours was also obtained from the Dollar store.

What You Need:

2 Pool Noodles (2 colors)

Craft foam sheet, 11.5x11.5"

Mesh bag (optional)

Marker

Sharp knife

What to Do:

Cut 5 slices from each color noodle, approximately 3/8 inches wide. Use a sharp knife and saw through the noodle. This is very easy to do.

For the "X" shapes, cut away a small "v" shape from each "corner" so to speak, equidistant from each other.

Cut the foam sheet to size and then draw two horizontal lines and 2 vertical lines, equally sized, to make your playing area.
